In mlx5e encap entry structure, IP tunnel info data structure is copied by value. This approach worked till now, but it breaks when there are encapsulation options, such as in case of Geneve. These options are stored in the structure that is allocated adjacent to the IP tunnel info struct, and not pointed at by any field in that struct. Therefore, when copying the struct by value, we loose the address of the original struct and can't get to the encapsulation options. Fix the problem by storing the pointer to the tunnel info data instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
